Answer:

so if it takes twice all long for amy as nacy that means

Amy takes 2/3 or 0.6(aprox)

Nacy takes 1/3 or 0.3(aprox)

Amy=24

Nacy=12

Hope This Helps!!!

a) On Wednesday, Harry sold 3 times as many candy bars as on Tuesday. On Thursday, he sold 5 times as many bars as on Wednesday.

Alborosie

Answer:

Tues=8 Weds=24 Thurs=120

Step-by-step explanation:

The question can be modeled by the equation x+3x+15x=152

x is the amount sold on tuesday, 3x is 3 times the amount sold on tuesday so it represents wednesday and 15x represents thursday as it is 5 times the amount sold on wednesday.

Now we just need to solve for x to figure out how many he sold each day.

x+3x+15x=19x

19x=152

x=152/19

x=8

To find the amount sold on each day just mulitiply x by the coefficient

Tuesday = x = 8

Wednesday = 3x = 3*8 = 24

Thursday = 15x = 15*8 = 120

Answer:

Area of Circle A = 1133.54

Circumference of Circle A= 119.32

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Sum of both circle diameters= 49 feet.

Circle A radius= Three feet less than twice the diameter of circle B.

Lets assume diameter of Circle B is "x"

∴ Circle A radius (r)= $(2x-3)$

We know, the diameter of circle is $2r$

Diameter of Circle A is $2\times (2x-3)$

Next as given sum of both circle diameter is 49 feet.

∴ $2(2x-3)+x= 49\ feet$

distributing 2 with 2x and -3

⇒ $4x-6+x= 49$

⇒ $5x-6= 49$

Adding both side by 6

⇒ $5x=55$

Cross multiplying both side.

⇒ $x=\frac{55}{5} = 11$

∴ Diameter of circle B is 11 feet.

Next, subtituting the value of x to get the value of radius for Circle A.

Radius of circle A= $(2x-3)$

⇒ Radius of circle A= $(2\times 11-3)= 22-3$

∴ Radius of circle A= 19 feet.

Area of circle= $\pi r^{2}$

Taking π= 3.14

Area of circle A= $3.14\times 19^{2} = 3.14\times 361$

∴ Area of circle A= 1133.54

Circumference of circle= 2πr

Circumference of Circle A= $2\times 3.14\times 19= 119.32$

∴ Circumference of Circle A= 119.32

A) solve x + x + x = 54 <br>b) solve y/5 = 7<br>c) solve 4t+6=24

egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

a) x = 18

b) y = 35

c) t = 4.5

Step-by-step explanation:

a) x + x + x = 54

3x = 54

x = 54 ÷ 3

x = 18

b) y/5 = 7

(y/5) × 5 = 7 × 5

y = 35

c) 4t + 6 = 24

4t +6 - 6 = 24 -6

4t = 18

4t ÷ 4 = 18 ÷ 4

t = 4.5
